Headlining the show is the brilliant Paul McCaffrey!

He has performed two solo tours of his own, Suburban Legend in 2018, and Lemon in 2020/21.
In 2019 Paul made his debut on the flagship BBC stand-up show Live at the Apollo. He previously has starred in BBC Three’s Impractical Jokers and Russell Howard’s Good News, Comedy Central’s Stand Up Central, Channel 4’s 50 Funniest, and CBBC’s The Dog Ate My Homework.
An accomplished radio presenter and guest, Paul has recently been heard on talkSPORT, Absolute’s The Alternative Vote, Rock ‘N’ Roll Football with Rob Beckett, and Russell Kane’s Whistle Stop Tour on BBC Radio 2. He also presents The Paul McCaffrey Show every Saturday morning on Jack FM. Paul is an award-winning comedian (Latitude New Act of the Year, London Paper New Act of the Year) and headlines at the biggest comedy clubs in the country. He has performed four critically acclaimed Edinburgh shows as well as major music festivals: Reading, Leeds, V Festival, Bestival and Latitude. Paul is also the co-host of smash hit podcast What’s Upset You Now? with fellow comedian Seann Walsh.
Opening the show is Javier Jarquin! An extremely experienced and highly respected, multi-hyphenated performer. Having performed his critically acclaimed show Card Ninja in over 27 territories and with a new focus of building his reputation as a comedy circuit headline act, Javier has established himself as a masterful entertainer.
Javier was born in New Zealand to Latin-American/Chinese parents. He skilfully weaves his unique perspective into every performance and delivers sharply executed insights on life as an immigrant. In addition, Javier’s gag rate is off the scale; a witty quick-hitter with incredible writing and improv skills. His alias, The Card Ninja has been a smash hit at Fringe Festivals everywhere since 2010 and due to unprecedented demand, will be transferring to New York for a season in 2023. With a show bursting with mind-blowing tricks, incredible precision and theatrical virtuosity, as he pushes live performance to the absolute limit. A self-proclaimed geek, Javier is a big gamer and Marvel Universe fan and he brings these expertise to the stage with his comedy improv duo, The Just Us League. The perfect all-round entertainer with an abundance of skill, comedic flair and excessive likability, Javier is definitely one to watch.
